Grounding with Gaea

by Mia Mona Muriel Amore'

Have you ever thought about the process of grounding? “Yes, we ground our energies into the Earth.” This is the usual response to this question. We put our “roots” down deep into the Earth. Sometimes we send Mother Earth our Love or our Healing energies. Sometimes we anchor Light into her breast. There are some who take her energies up into their bodies, but for the most part, we think of establishing or strengthening our connection to the Earth. This is part of the process. Yet, there is more that can and should be done in the process of grounding.

It is good and most appropriate for us to connect with Mother Earth. But, in so doing, we should also Understand and acknowledge that Gaea is a sentient being of Life. She is one of our mothers. For some, she is the only “mother”. It is from her breast that our biological bodies have come and will one day return. To honor this relationship with thanks and connecting to her is most appreciated by Gaea. But, she would like more than that.

Our relationship with Gaea should be a two-way interaction. When we connect with her via grounding to say hello, we should also allow her the opportunity to say hello in return. Gaea has far more to share with us than simply the biological ingredients for a body and its sustenance. Yet most human beings do not give her the chance to share, and many think of her as only a “hunk of rock orbiting the Sun”. Gaea has Love, wisdom, Strength, and Protection among many other gifts to share with us.

In this Time of Change, it is of great importance to our well being to re-establish and strengthen our connections with Gaea every day. The Earth serves as a modulator in adjusting the frequencies of the energies coming from the solar storms and the changing Universe. These energies are meant to assist in the evolution of consciousness for all beings of Life within our Solar System. They are far easier to assimilate into our nervous system when they have been gentled for us by our Earth Mother. In allowing her to intermediate for us, we deepen our bonds with her.

It is of vital importance that we each have a strong bond with Gaea as she begins to make changes as a result of her own evolution. The Universe has called every being of Life into a state of Peace. This edict includes Gaea. As she shifts from providing a place where Illusion and Duality flourish into a place where Peace reigns, changes are occurring within her consciousness as well as her body. Our own changes will come much more easily if we shift with Gaea’s changes rather than as a result of her changes. She is our Earth Mother. She will take care of us if we will allow her to do so. We live within her energy fields. Changes in her energies have a direct impact on our own energies. Evolution in her consciousness stimulates evolution in our own, just as our evolution stimulates hers. It is a beautiful and mutually beneficial relationship when we grow together in Harmony with Gaea.

A Simple Grounding Process

So how does one fully ground with Gaea? It is a very easy process. Simply sit with your palms and base chakras touching the ground or floor. Direct contact with the ground is preferable, but if it is not possible, the intent to connect with the ground will suffice. Breathe in and down from the Great Mother-Creator-Universe through the crown chakras to the Heart chakras. On the exhale, breathe down from the Heart chakras to and through the base chakras and the hand chakras offering the energies to the Earth. Repeat this process until a sense of calm is felt. For some this happens within a few breaths. For others it may take quite a while. There is no right or wrong. Simply follow the breath and the energies.

When the sense of calm is felt, reverse the breathing process. Breathe up from Gaea to and through the base and hand chakras to the Heart chakras. On the exhale, breathe up from the Heart chakras to and through the crown chakras and return the energies to the Creator-Universe-Great Mother. As you breathe with Gaea, open your Heart and your mind to her. Continue until a stillness is felt, and for as long afterward as is desired. If it becomes uncomfortable to sit with your palms directly on the ground or floor, place your hands palm up on your upper thighs. Try to enjoy grounding with Gaea for at least 10-15 minutes every day.

Note: If you find yourself experiencing headaches, nausea, insomnia, jitteriness, or other expression of nervous tension that you feel is related to solar storm activities, you may find that this grounding technique is very helpful in alleviating those sensations.
